"i havent got around to make a power flight pop bottle but i have made a free flight bottle. i bought a huge 54'' fire bird wing and made a slot in the bottle and stuck the wing in there. it worked ok. "

Isn't that cheating just a little. To be fair in this quest you can't use extra aero surfaces or water squirting. The bottle has to be making the lift in some way, most probably cutting it so it ends up as a cylinder.

My guess, by the way, is that squirting water rockets is a summer sport - just in case one of them had a scratch in the outer wall of the bottle. One thing for sure, there is a lot of mass being ejected.
